Rainfall reports show where morning storm walloped West Michigan

GRAND RAPIDS, MI — Nearly 4 inches of rain have fallen across parts of West Michigan since Wednesday, with much falling during a bout of storms Thursday morning.

The National Weather Service in Grand Rapids published rainfall totals from storm spotter reports across the region, and more rain is expected this afternoon and evening.

Among the reported totals, Grandville by far was walloped the worst, with 3.96 inches of rain between Wednesday afternoon and noon Thursday.

The rain has caused widespread flooding on streets and in rivers and streams, which already were high because of recent deluges.

States of emergency have been declared in Greater Grand Rapids, notably Wyoming, where mandatory evacuations have been ordered because of flood-plagued homes.

Here are rainfall totals reported to the weather service. Some vary between 12-hour reports and 24-hour reports. More than one figure was given for some locations, in which case the higher total was used:
